Ordinary World

Lyrics

Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue
 Thought I heard you talking softly
 ♪
 I turned on the lights, the TV, and the radio
 Still I can't escape the ghost of you
 What has happened to it all?
 Crazy, some'd say
 Where is the life that I recognise? (Gone away)
 But I won't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world
 Somehow I have to find
 And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world
 I will learn to survive
 ♪
 Passion or coincidence once prompted you to say
 "Pride will tear us both apart"
 Well, now pride's gone out the window
 Cross the rooftops, run away
 Left me in the vacuum of my heart
 What is happening to me?
 Crazy, some'd say
 Where is my friend when I need you most? (Gone away)
 But I won't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world
 Somehow I have to find
 And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world
 I will learn to survive
 ♪
 Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
 Ah-ah-ah
 ♪
 Just gone away
 ♪
 Oh-oh
 ♪
 Papers in the roadside tell of suffering and greed
 Fear today, forgot tomorrow
 Ooh-ooh, here besides the news of holy war and holy need
 Ours is just a little sorrowed talk
 ♪
 And I don't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world
 Somehow I have to find
 And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world
 I will learn to survive
 (Every world is my world) I will learn to survive
 (Any world is my world) I will learn to survive
 (Any world is my world)
 
 Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue
 Thought I heard you talking softly
 ♪
 I turned on the lights, the TV, and the radio
 Still I can't escape the ghost of you
 What has happened to it all?
 Crazy, some'd say
 Where is the life that I recognise? (Gone away)
 But I won't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world
 Somehow I have to find
 And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world
 I will learn to survive
